I The conililiiins which prevail rela tive to procuring a supply ol coal for the needs of residents in North Vancouver city and district are of a nature to niaiua-a- public indignation and to call (nr prompt and forceful action upon the part of the people for their own protection. Tliu only reason that cun be attributed »'liy such u protest has nut Ik-cii lodgiil before Iliin with the provincial government is that the public ut lurge have uot hitherto been niuile iiwul'e ol the facts. The situation according to a statement prepared by locul dealers for Ihe Iliiunl of Trade is as follows "Our local dealers it the present lime ure compelled to gel their supplies IliroUgli Vnncouver coal merchants, which is mil only Unfair to them, lml also imposes a great hardship upon lhe residents of this 'ity." "In the first pline, having to purchase through Vancouver dealers not only melius Ihul our lucafCHeulers arc compelled in pay a considerable advance on mine prices wbicb advance piusl of necessity be imposed upon our Industries und residents, bul also ul the present season when u coal short age exists in Vancouver our coal supply is completely cut off until such lime us llie full requirements of Vancouver Have bum satistied. Thie we consider not only an injustice, but uu unwarranted imposition, us we leel thut the iiiy of North Vancouvei has now arrived ui a stage in ils history as u cily ihni -...iiuiiii.

The terms employed in the above Statement wilh reference to the situation are I'Mii'inely moderate und do not bej/in lo d'i the mutter justiae. It is un exhibition of barefaced pre; lumptuousneas ol the most intolerable order' that a lew middlumi'11 coul deal ers in the city ol Vuneouver should havu the temerity lo suy to the entire community ol thousands of citi- sens residing on lhc North Shore, "you shull not procure a pound ol Vancouver isluml coal williout in 1 obtaining our consent nnd even then nol without (laying us a royalty upon every pound thut wu |ieiniil you lo burn." iSo lur as is known tin sc men wbo are ex| loitiug the public lor private gain in lliis offensive manner do not own any portion of its mines from which llic coal is brought and bave no rapitul iuvostsJ (herein. As a rule they do not cveli bundle the coal that they so condescendingly allow Norlh Vancouver to procure. Al- r-iar the coal leaves the mines il is hn11dh.1l by lhe local dealers In whom • ft is consigned.
